Baby can uploaded

Cute! Are those brads on the can? Did you decorate the paper before adding it to the can? Sandy

That is very cute. You did a great job. I agree with Kenda. I might have to make some as christmas gifts. Any one got any ideas on what to do for a teacher. Well, besides teacher theme. Like crayons for one, or candy. Any ideas HELP!!! I'm not that creative.

It's really pretty!!!

Thanks Sandy. Yep, those are brads. I used them to hold the vellum quote onto a piece of cardstock. There's actually two papers on the can....a blue plaid cardstock, and a Pooh vellum. I put them on the can before decorating them. I'm not sure, but that might have been a little backwards? I don't know. I just started playing! LOL

Thanks Kenda. DH talked to the dad yesterday, but I forgot to ask DH if they had opened the can yet. They would make great Christmas gifts! I wonder if it's possible to get them in the smaller cans.

Thanks Shannon. I have a compliation of stuff to put in paint cans. Here's one for a teacher.

Great list! thanks for the ideas Sandy

Just gorgeous Deb!!!

Take care, Marilyn (playing catch up again)

Wow! Great idea's! Thanks Deb. I think I might have to do a couple for Christmas presents for teachers and maybe my family. I forgot. Where can you get the plain cans again.

Thanks I will. I might have to go there over lunch.

I got mine at Home Depot for about $3. Lowes probably has them, too. I know Wal Mart doesn't! LOL (checked there first)

Thanks Marilyn.
